Hi All
First of all, thanks to everyone who suggested names and who completed the survey, which is now CLOSED. Go raibh m?le maith agaibh (which is how we say "thank you" in Irish but which literally means "may you have a thousand goods"...which is OK too!)
To be honest, watching the results come in was somewhat reminiscent of watching the Kenyans and Ethiopians in an Olympic long distance race.

There was a couple of ones out the front from the beginning but they were neck and neck for a long time.
Eventually the one that won (and that I'm going to go with) was
Master Your Money: free your financial gremlins in 5 easy steps. And yes, I know it didn't go well with some people on the group!
I want to say a particular thank you to Nicola Cairncross (
www.themoneygym.com ) who suggested that name. (so you can blame her!

)
Just a reminder to you again that the e-book in its current evolution (
Master Your Money: a simple 5 step plan to help you spend less and save more) with its set of great bonuses will be on sale for $27 until Friday 19th September 2008 (after which it is going back up to $47). In the meantime, I'm going to do some updating on the bonuses etc. Some of the bonus e-books alone are worth more than this!
This e-book is for people who have decided they want to do something about their finances but don't know what the next steps are: It covers the following:
? Taking the first simple steps (easier than you think!)
? Taking control of your money (get as automated as possible)
? Tracking your expenditure - lots of easy to use ideas given. I've even given an Excel spreadsheet you can use to easily track what you are spending your money on.
? Get really aware about your money, what are you REALLY spending your money on...and is it the optimal way for YOU?
? Creating financial goals: what do you want, how much is it, what is stopping you, how can you get around that
? Identifying your financial waistband: you know how you have an item of clothing that acts like an early warning system around your weight...well, identify what YOUR financial waistband is...and get clear on what you need to do about it, so that you don't get into financial difficulty again.
? Identify fun ways to make more money....
? And because of course money is about more than euros/sterling/dollars, I've included lots of resources and exercises to help change your beliefs around money...
So check out:
www.master-your-money.net And of course there is the bonuses!
? Excel spreadsheets: one to help you track your finances, the second one to see the REAL annual cost of the daily latte/mars bar etc
